Story
Mochii and his brother Sushii are affectionate cats. However, due to extensive work-related travel and my husband's long working hours, we are unable to provide them with adequate care. Despite providing a dedicated cat room during our absences, they exhibit signs of stress and have demonstrated a tendency to escape. While we would prefer to retain them, this is unfortunately not feasible. Mochii is an engaging cat who enjoys interaction, affection, and proximity to his human companions, often initiating morning greetings. He displays a curious nature and a propensity to follow his owners, although he also tends to knock over objects. Sushii is super snuggly. He makes the best biscuits and will sleep right on you or next to you. He is a great jumper and super playful. He loves loves loves belly rubs.

Story
We found Margo when she was 8 months old as a stray and is now 4 years old. She loves to play and snuggle. She is the only one that enjoys having guests and kids over to the house. We are looking to rehome her to a single cat family as she seems that she would be more comfortable being the only cat. One of our other cats is a bully and has terrorized Margo to the point she lives in her own room these days. We have tried reintroducing the others back to Margo, but she tends to be anxious outside of her room. She might be able to handle living with a male cat that ignores her. Margo has loved our kid relatives and thrives whenever we have company. She has no desire to go outside, but loves sitting in the window watching all the outdoor activities. She hears dogs barking, but has never met a dog while in our care so we are not sure how she would do. We just want to find her a loving home where she can be the center of attention!

Friend moved abroad so we took in her cat. As our daughter has gotten to be a toddler she doesn’t get along with her as much so we feel as though it’s safer for both of them if she gets a new home.

Story
Barbara is a wonderful cat that's currently 7 years old that enjoys hours of cuddles with some light play. She has tons of personality and loves to chirp at you when getting affection/attention. She is INDOORS ONLY and will become anxious if outdoors. She has given me years of enjoyment but sadly must find a better home that's more accommodating to her needs to be a households single pet. she does not get along well with other dogs/cats and will become territorial. Currently she cannot have her best life living with my wife and I who have multiple dogs, Barb was able to live with our 2 dogs when they were puppies but has become increasingly more hostile towards them over the past few years.

Story
My boyfriend and I bought Yugi from a Humane Society program at PetSmart on September 13, 2024. We got him when he already only had 1 eye and he had it taken out at the shelter, they said nothing would get worse because of the surgery and he acts like a regular cat without it. He was born June 1 2024 so he is almost 1 year old now. We found out in November that he was suffering from FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis) which is a non-contagious mutation disease he had developed from his mom. He is now cured after 3 months of treatment (pills), but he still is not well potty trained and it has been hard to get him to potty train. We are just looking someone who can show patience towards him and his journey. He really loves to cuddle, he is incredibly playful, and he is pretty confident. It was easy to get him and my other cat to be friends. He really is the sweetest soul and he deserves a loving home.

Story
Chandler is solid black with beautiful gold eyes, like Bombays. He plays hard with his buddy Mousetro for short periods of time and then seeks out affection and cuddles from the foster mom. He is sweet and laid back. He would do well with someone who is home a lot. He hasn't been around dogs or young children. He has been best buddies with Mousetro since they were only weeks old, so we'd like to see them go to the same home. Chandler is currently in a foster home. If you have any questions, please email cowtownpets@gmail.com. If you are interested in applying to adopt Chandler & Mousetro, please submit an online application at cowtownpets.org. Chandler has been neutered and microchipped, shots are up-to-date, had wormer and flea prevention. The adoption fee for the pair is $170 + tax.

I got Remy from one of my friends who was going through a hard time personally. He is four years old, he is fixed, and he is truly such a sweetie. He is shy and a little anxious, but he is gentle and loving. Because I am going through so many life events all at once, I am looking for someone who can give him the life and love he deserves.
